What type of bond is formed when correct base pairs come together?
|
|
Sulphur bonds
|
|
|
Ionic bonds
|
|
|
Hydrogen bonds
|
|
|
Covalent bonds
|
Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Covalent bonds occur within each linear strand and strongly bond the bases, sugars, and phosphate groups (both within each component and between components). Hydrogen bonds occur between the two strands and involve a base from one strand with a base from the second in complementary pairing.
Detailed explanation-2: -Answer and Explanation: The answer is B: hydrogen bonds are easier to break allowing for DNA copying. Hydrogen bonds formed between complementary base pairs on opposite DNA strands form the “rungs on a ladder” portion of DNA’s double-helical structure.
Detailed explanation-3: -Each base pair is composed of at least two interbase hydrogen bonds (H-bonds).
